In October, Wisconsin Sphincter of the Assembly Robin Vos and fellow GQP members put a stop to raises meant for the faculty of the University of Wisconsin system. Vos' was holding the money ransom to force the system into ending any vestige of DEI programming.

Cue the heroic music as Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers files a lawsuit against Vos and the GQP for overstepping their authority:

Evers said that the GQP syndicate's actions violate the constitution by intruding on the powers and authority of the executive branch:

Democratic Gov. Tony Evers has sued Republican lawmakers, accusing the group of violating the state constitution by “intruding” into executive functions.

The lawsuit, filed Tuesday, outlines Evers' allegations that Republican members of the Legislature are holding hostage the pre-approved raises for 35,000 University of Wisconsin System employees and misusing the legislative veto process to block executive actions outside the bounds of normal budgetary operations.

“Republican legislators are unconstitutionally obstructing basic functions of government — actions that have not only aimed to prevent state government from efficiently and effectively serving the people of our state but are now actively harming tens of thousands of Wisconsinites every day across our state,” Evers said in a statement Tuesday. “I’m a born-and-raised Wisconsinite, and what I know for certain is that Wisconsinites expect elected officials to govern, they expect us to get things done, and they expect their government to work and work for them — and certainly not against them.

Sphincter Vos, being the crime boss that he is, replied to the lawsuit by making a thinly veiled threat to the pay raises that already went out to the other state employees:

“Today’s lawsuit by Governor Evers and Attorney General Kaul is an attempt to eliminate the 4% raises given to all state employees by the legislature. In a time of unprecedented inflation brought on by reckless Democrat spending, we think it is abhorrent that the Governor would try and take away lawfully approved money for hardworking state employees.”

Project much, Vos?

The legislature has done their job by authorizing the funding. They do not have the authority to take away the raises once they are authorized. For Vos to threaten even more employees' hard earned money is, in Governor Evers' own words, "This is bullshit."
